Hello,
I installed the 3.6.1-2fc18 kernel into my f17 setup. The Wifi and BT
modules are there and everything looks good.
iwlist scanning ( after an ifup on the wlan0 ) yields a healthy list of
AP's within range, the BT ( btwilink ) module on modprobe does exactly the
same as my other SD cards ( buildroot ) setup and times out.
as I think ive already listed on the Panda ES its a TIWI BLE ( 1271L ) with
the Bluetooth 4.0 ( EDR ). this one seems to be the problematic part or of
course an interesting challenge.

Hi Peter,
From talking with Pavan at TI, it seems in my setup ( buildroot ) my
bluetooth chip does not return a revision thus i dont see it request a BTS
( firmware ) file.
I was not sure what all patches go into your kernels, in that perhaps
something in there had been fixed up ( source file would be st_kim.c ). on
my board the gpio46 ( kim ) is not set correctly with a direction of out
and set hi ( 1 ).
Regards
Nigel
